Please don't.  If you consider this a viable backup strategy, you might
just as well have no backup at all.  You should use a VCS like Git to be
able to revert to an earlier version of your files.  If necessary, make
Org a sub-project (that's specific to Git of course) so that not only
your files but also Org will move back in time when you request that.
Defending against loss of data is only really possible if you copy them
to a different medium in a different location.  Again, Git would help
you do that by allowing you to use a remote repository on some server
you can access.


Regards,
Achim.
